ah, very cool. you must be talking about either the "Rakata Field Medic's Headgear" or the "Rakata Field Tech's Headgear". I will try to get these, eventually... I hope you are NOT talking about the "Rakata Enforcer's Headgear", that looks like some kind of army radio operator helmet from Viet-nam or something

thank you! I will check both of those out

Wait a sec... all the new armor people will be crafting after 1.2 hits... is BOP? Nobody will be able to sell their crit-crafted orange armor?

ya, I appreciated the extra play time ; )

I doubt it, and also... while she's gone... your other crew skills will be jacked up. A work around (when you assign them all tasks) will be to start at the bottom of the crew list, giving them the shortest running tasks. because if a crew member 3 is busy doing a crew skill, then crew member 2 wont be able to start a new one. until kaliyo comes back...

Are there any people willing to sell their PVP commendations or maybe make a purchase for me? I would pay on the order of hundreds of thousands (or into the million or so) credits for the pvp speeder...

crap, I forget to check. I was busy trying to the marauders foundry hood for my sniper. 4 tries through "the foundry" and no dice yet. BAH! At least I was able to complete my matrix cube with three red shards last night.

ah good call, those are techy. I like the pants the most from that set. I think the jacket is too bright, so maybe I'm looking for more of a ninja/spy theme. I think this headgear would look good: http://www.torhead.com/item/gsTPcfr/marauder-elite-headgear

OK, so lets say you just need the 750 WZ commendations... how many of those can you earn in one four hour period?

oh I have no clue... I was just curious.

Its "raining valor" right now? There are certain conditions right now that make it easier to earn valor than before?

Yes, I believe there is at least one vehicle to be removed with patch 1.2 that currently requires valor 65 to buy.

Yes, if i did 4 hrs of pvp only. I have never done pvp (in this game) but my sniper is up to level 50 from pve So what do you think? Is level 65 valor possible before patch 1.2 ?

If I played ~4 hours a night, could I reach PvP valor 65 before 1.2? Lets assume I don't suck, and perform well above average...

So to double clarify... we cant even buy the speeder unless we have a valor rank of 65? I know we cant "learn" or "use" that speeder without the valor rank, but we cant buy it either? I guess I can just go look tonight and check... but dang!

I finally got this to drop, and will be building my whole sniper's look around it: http://www.torhead.com/item/alcvRjs/red-reaper-sniper-rifle#modelviewer Can you guys recommend techy / ninja / spy type pieces for armor that go well with that gun?

LOL thats great, I feel we would be good friends if we knew each other

I'm a sniper and now that... ...it seems that at random times or at random events, certain members of my crew cannot perform any crew skills, they are simply grayed out as if they are busy. I cant make rhyme or reason of it, other than the unavailable crew member is revealing some bug in the code. anybody else see this?

It wont be, because you cant post items to both trade networks at the same time. I'd rather post where something is going to be sold. Now if I was a crafter, and had duplicates of things... then maybe. But since all the customers will ALREADY be at the faction specific GTNs... that is where I will have all my items. If they removed cross-faction mail, then I would use the ship's "neutral GTN".

I don't think it will, not at all. We should write up some kind of over-under on this and have fun with it. maybe a 6-month sig bet or something...

sorry bro, Reps already can benefit from it, we all have alts sitting in both factions, transferring goods through nar shaddaa back to the other side if the GTN on the ship is a separate GTN from the fleets, it will be completely useless

thats dumb. I'm just going to use alts to post stuff on the other faction then. the ship "GTN" is useless...

after 1.2, will the neutral GTN on our ships (if we unlock it) have access to both fleet's GTN or will it be a completely separate trade network? The hutt trade network is not a GTN. The way I envision the neutral GTN is that anything posted on it will show in both fleet's GTNs, and any searches from it will show items from both fleet's GTNs...

you are basically a supplier (like tupperware or nintendo) and you are using another store (like walmart) and you want to restrict who walmart sells to? lol your logic is so very lacking... (yes) if you sell everything fast to various users, your prices might be too low (yes) if you re-post everything, your prices might be too high (however) if he buys & successfully resells everything, YOUR PRICES ARE TOO LOW he is not manipulating the market, he is manipulating you! the best way to deal with him is to keep posting items (such that you still make a profit) and set your prices somewhere around 70-90% of what his last price is. when people do this, to my cornered market, I am forced to let the price drop, there is not enough demand for their lower prices to sell and for people to be left over to buy at my higher prices. and I cant just infinitely buy all of his 90% priced items, I wont make profit, especially because I wont be able to resell everything. well... I could keep doing that, but it would be a transfer of wealth from my millions over to his millions. A side tip - if you are trying to combat somebody that is cornering a market, you cant just check your mail & GTN once a day, try checking 2-3 times a day MINIMUM, so you can be sure to re-post anything that was sold, and make sure you post under his prices.

Anybody has the option to sell zero, one, or more products to any other player, so stop thinking of these mythical players without credits to buy what they want, and start selling to specific people (friends, guild-mates, pubbies you find on the fleet). If you post on the GTN free market, then you are making an implied contract that you will take X amount of credits for your product from any player while attaining the benefit of free & constant "advertisement" of your product. If you want your own market, make a website, tell people who in-game they have to message, and on what server(s) in order to buy your product. Take out the middle man (GTN).
